In a study supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers revealed the structural underpinnings of memory formation across a broad network of neurons in the mouse brain.

Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have discovered a new pathway to forming long-term memories in ...

Researchers have revealed the structural underpinnings of memory formation across a broad network of neurons in the mouse brain. This work sheds light on the fundamentally flexible nature of how ...

Formation of long-term memory without short-term memory revealed by CaMKII inhibition. Nature Neuroscience , 2024; DOI: 10.1038/s41593-024-01831-z Cite This Page : ...

However, when we repeated these experiments and used multiple tools and approaches to verify our findings, we were convinced,” describes Dr. Shin. “Rather than long-term memory formation being a ...

In seeing how these mouse brains crackled with activity as they played this game time after time, they saw activity in a region of the brain not associated with memory formation. They published ...

April 26, 2016 Penn researchers restore memory formation in sleep-deprived mice Experiment shows that precise manipulation of gene expression reverses effects on sleep-dependent protein synthesis ...

Boosting neurogenesis in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease increases the number of newly formed neurons involved in storing and retrieving memories (arrows). [From J Exp Med. 2022. 219 (9 ...

Better Mouse Memory Comes at a Price. Researchers have discovered that transgenic mice previously shown to outperform their normal counterparts on learning and memory tests1 are also more sensitive to ...

To investigate the role of DDHD2 in memory formation, the researchers used a DDHD2 knockout mouse model of HSP and tracked the animals’ neuromotor and cognitive decline throughout their lifespan.

With this tool in hand, the team set out to use light to block short-term memory formation in a mouse. Mice prefer dark spaces and, when given a choice, will immediately enter a dark space from a ...

Scientists at Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience discovered a parallel pathway for forming long-term memories that bypasses short-term memory. Using optogenetics, they blocked short-term ...
